[Linux-ham] WWV based NTP server

[Kevin Otte]

Recently I have been pondering NTP reference clocks (yes, I ponder odd
things).  While doing some reading, I found out that the ntpd that ships
with most modern distros has a module to decode WWV.  The docs claim some
astonishing accuracy.

Materials needed:
- A linux box with a sound card
- A shortwave receiver that can hear WWV

If anyone else out there is interested in constructing such a beast, let me
know!

Why do this?  Why not?! :)
